An Introduction to Mathematical Cryptography de Jeffrey Hoffstein

An Introduction to Mathematical Cryptography

Autor Jeffrey Hoffstein, Jill Pipher, J H Silverman
en Limba Engleză Paperback – dec 2010

Observăm o evoluție constantă a securității digitale, unde matematica pură a încetat de mult să fie un exercițiu teoretic, devenind coloana vertebrală a comunicațiilor moderne pe internet. An Introduction to Mathematical Cryptography reflectă această tranziție, oferind o fundamentare riguroasă a conceptelor care au revoluționat domeniul după 1976. Credem că forța acestei lucrări rezidă în capacitatea autorilor Jeffrey Hoffstein, Jill Pipher și J H Silverman de a construi un parcurs pedagogic complet, de la logaritmi discreți până la complexitatea sistemelor bazate pe rețele. Structura volumului este una progresivă, fiind organizată pentru a servi atât ca manual de curs, cât și ca referință tehnică. Primele capitole pun bazele în teoria numerelor și factorizarea întregilor (RSA), continuând cu o analiză detaliată a combinatoricii și teoriei informației. Progresia către subiecte avansate, cum ar fi curbele eliptice și criptografia bazată pe latice (lattices), se face natural, oferind cititorului instrumentele necesare pentru a înțelege nu doar cum funcționează un algoritm, ci și de ce este acesta sigur din punct de vedere computațional. Acoperă aceeași arie tematică precum Mathematical Foundations of Public Key Cryptography, dar cu o abordare mai orientată către studenții care au doar un background de bază în algebră liniară, facilitând accesul la demonstrații fără a sacrifica rigoarea. În timp ce alte lucrări, precum Cryptography de Simon Rubinstein-Salzedo, includ o perspectivă istorică asupra cifrurilor clasice, volumul de față alege să prioritizeze sistemele cu cheie publică, oferind o profunzime matematică superioară în această nișă specifică. Rezultatul este un text echilibrat, unde teoria abstractă întâlnește aplicația practică în securitatea digitală contemporană.

De ce să citești această carte

Recomandăm această carte studenților și profesioniștilor din matematică sau informatică care doresc să înțeleagă mecanismele interne ale algoritmilor RSA și Diffie-Hellman. Cititorul câștigă o bază solidă în teoria numerelor aplicată, trecând dincolo de utilizarea superficială a protocoalelor de securitate către o înțelegere profundă a vulnerabilităților și punctelor forte ale criptografiei moderne.

Despre autor

Jeffrey Hoffstein, Jill Pipher și Joseph H. Silverman sunt profesori de matematică la Universitatea Brown, recunoscuți internațional pentru contribuțiile lor în teoria numerelor și criptografie. Silverman este autorul unor tratate de referință despre curbele eliptice, în timp ce Pipher este o autoritate în analiză armonică și a servit ca președinte al American Mathematical Society. Împreună, cei trei au fondat NTRU Cryptosystems, dezvoltând algoritmi de criptografie bazată pe latice, ceea ce conferă acestui manual o autoritate practică rară în literatura academică.

Descriere scurtă

ThecreationofpublickeycryptographybyDi?eandHellmanin1976andthe subsequent invention of the RSA public key cryptosystem by Rivest, Shamir, and Adleman in 1978 are watershed events in the long history of secret c- munications. It is hard to overestimate the importance of public key cr- tosystems and their associated digital signature schemes in the modern world of computers and the Internet. This book provides an introduction to the theory of public key cryptography and to the mathematical ideas underlying that theory. Public key cryptography draws on many areas of mathematics, including number theory, abstract algebra, probability, and information theory. Each of these topics is introduced and developed in su?cient detail so that this book provides a self-contained course for the beginning student. The only prerequisite is a ?rst course in linear algebra. On the other hand, students with stronger mathematical backgrounds can move directly to cryptographic applications and still have time for advanced topics such as elliptic curve pairings and lattice-reduction algorithms. Amongthemanyfacetsofmoderncryptography,thisbookchoosestoc- centrate primarily on public key cryptosystems and digital signature schemes. This allows for an in-depth development of the necessary mathematics - quired for both the construction of these schemes and an analysis of their security. The reader who masters the material in this book will not only be well prepared for further study in cryptography, but will have acquired a real understanding of the underlying mathematical principles on which modern cryptography is based.

Recenzii

From the reviews:
"The book is devoted to public key cryptography, whose principal goal is to allow two or more people to exchange confidential information … . The material is very well organized, and it is self-contained: no prerequisites in higher mathematics are needed. In fact, everything is explained and carefully covered … . there is abundance of examples and proposed exercises at the end of each chapter. … This book is ideal as a textbook for a course aimed at undergraduate mathematics or computer science students." (Fabio Mainardi, The Mathematical Association of America, October, 2008)
"This book focuses on public key cryptography … . Hoffstein, Pipher, and Silverman … provide a thorough treatment of the topics while keeping the material accessible. … The book uses examples throughout the text to illustrate the theorems, and provides a large number of exercises … . The volume includes a nice bibliography. … Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduate through professional collections." (C. Bauer, Choice, Vol. 46 (7), March, 2009)
"For most undergraduate students in mathematics or computer science (CS), mathematical cryptography is a challenging subject. … it is written in a way that makes you want to keep reading. … The authors officially targeted the book for advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate students. I believe that this audience is appropriate. … it could even be used with students who are just learning how to execute rigorous mathematical proofs. … I strongly believe that it finds the right tone for today’s students … ." (Burkhard Englert, ACM Computing Reviews, March, 2009)
"The exercises and text would make an excellent course for undergraduate independent study. … This is an excellent book. Hoffstein, Pipher and Silverman have written as good a book as is possible to explain public key cryptography. … This book would probably be best suited for a graduate course that focused on public key cryptography, for undergraduate independent study, or for the mathematician who wants to see how mathematics is used in public key cryptography." (Jintai Ding and Chris Christensen, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2009 m)

Textul de pe ultima copertă

This self-contained introduction to modern cryptography emphasizes the mathematics behind the theory of public key cryptosystems and digital signature schemes. The book focuses on these key topics while developing the mathematical tools needed for the construction and security analysis of diverse cryptosystems. Only basic linear algebra is required of the reader; techniques from algebra, number theory, and probability are introduced and developed as required.
The book covers a variety of topics that are considered central to mathematical cryptography. Key topics include:
* classical cryptographic constructions, such as Diffie-Hellmann key exchange, discrete logarithm-based cryptosystems, the RSA cryptosystem, and digital signatures;
* fundamental mathematical tools for cryptography, including primality testing, factorization algorithms, probability theory, information theory, and collision algorithms;
* an in-depth treatment of important recent cryptographic innovations, such as elliptic curves, elliptic curve and pairing-based cryptography, lattices, lattice-based cryptography, and the NTRU cryptosystem.
This book is an ideal introduction for mathematics and computer science students to the mathematical foundations of modern cryptography. The book includes an extensive bibliography and index; supplementary materials are available online.
